Tonight, the Huskers head to Ames for their first Big XII road game of the year. The first game was a big win, knocking off a Missouri team that had been ranked earlier in the season. The Cyclones were only projected to finish 11th in the league, but Nebraska has traditionally struggled in Ames, and the Cyclones are known for defending their home court well.

Arena Delayed
In other news, the Lincoln city council has decided not to pursue a vote on the Arena project (see the links below). That means that the new arena in the Haymarket Park area will be pushed at least one more year (if not longer) into the future.
